Publisher XSEED - a specialist in localising Japanese titles for western consumption - has announced that RPG The Last Story is its most popular title yet, although it stopped short of divulging precise figures.

The game - which is developed by Hironobu "Final Fantasy" Sakaguchi's studio Mistwalker - launched in North America in August. XSEED has confirmed that a new print run of the game is now available for $29.99 - the original 'premium' run was more expensive, but came with bonus items.

The Last Story launched in Europe earlier this year. We called it "a story that can't be missed" when we reviewed it in February.
